Trump won because

white men voted in the plurality for him and I totally agree


The part about the 48 vs 47 was my mistake, as I said in another post.

I am curious about your views on those few Bernie supporters who refused to vote for Clinton and/or trashed her well past the primary. Do you agree that they played a role in Clinton's defeat?
